Chapter 216 Your Clothes

作者: Night Eleven
Barry felt like Landon was treating them like they didn't exist.

After thinking briefly, Aria answered, "There's actually a question I want to ask you."

"Okay. Give me a moment," Landon said, his dark gaze fixed on the nervous man before him. He then said to the man, "You head back first. I want to see the outcome tomorrow."

Aria could faintly hear sounds from the other end of the call. It felt like she was listening through a veil of mist, yet somehow, she could still perceive the tangible pressure emanating from the other end of the phone line.

The person Landon was speaking to seemed extremely deferential, their voice tinged with fear. "Yes. Mr. L…"

Aria didn't catch the name clearly.

By the time Aria regained her focus, the voice call had transitioned into a video call.

She didn't decline his sudden video call request.

Aria was usually carefree and saw no difference between voice and video calls.

Soon, Landon's face appeared on the screen. He wore a black suit, his legs

    Morton shot to his feet and raised his voice. "Alright, everyone! It's time to board! Grab your stuff and line up at the gate." Everyone picked up their things, shouldered their bags, and got in line heading toward the boarding gate. Aria hung back, watching the expressions on their faces. There was excitement and anxiety. The weight on her shoulders suddenly felt heavier. These people were heading there full of hope. Once they figured out the real situation, they'd definitely regret it. Her primary mission was supposed to be rescuing the researchers. She had gotten new intel that they weren't in Athara's intelligence custody anymore—rebel forces had taken them. Among those eight scientists, one had knowledge of newly developed weapons technology. The rebel forces had heard about it and grabbed all the scientists at any cost, just to get their hands on that weapons tech. Thinking about this, Aria picked up her bag with one hand, her expression focused. They needed to wrap thi

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2023 Boarding the Flight

    Phineas was the one who asked. After getting rejected everywhere he'd tried, he had blown through almost all his family's savings. Plus, his mother had health problems that weren't going away. He was worried his father couldn't handle taking care of her alone if he was gone too long. Everyone else was thinking the same thing. Stay away too long and their families would start to worry. Morton looked back at Phineas, then smiled as he looked around at everyone. "I can tell you're all wondering the same thing. So let me just tell you straight up. Once we get there, things will be pretty hectic at first. "But once that busy period's done, you can come back. Look at it this way—if you could just come and go whenever you felt like it, how would you make any money? If you don't make the boss money, the boss doesn't pay you. Simple as that, right? "You trusted me enough to come this far, and I'm not going to let you down." Morton's voice got serious. "Go there, do what you're suppo

    Morton Grenmarsh was the handler gathering everyone at the airport this time. He looked at Landon and said, "Oh, this lady's also going overseas with us. We're all like family here, so don't go using that charm of yours on her." Landon turned slightly. "I'm a gentleman. I don't have those kinds of thoughts." Then he looked at Aria with amusement. "Hello there, I'm Landon York." Aria looked up with a touch of arrogance, not extending her hand. "You don't think you can hit on me just because you're good-looking, do you?" "What's that supposed to mean?" Landon pretended to be annoyed. "I just wanted to be friends."Aria glanced at her fake designer bag and scoffed. "Not just anyone gets to be my friend, got it? Mr. York." Landon leaned in closer. "It's been a while since I met a lady with such fire. You've got my attention." "Go cool off somewhere else." Aria propped her chin on her hand lazily. "Don't bother me. If it weren't for that face of yours holding up that terrible

    Dawn broke. A few hours later, Aria, Landon, and Sam arrived at the airport to check in for departure. This was a special mission, and the hostages' identities were classified. That was why the three were traveling with a tour group this time, entering Athara as tourists. But they looked more like those typical scam victims.Aria's goal this time was simple. She would rescue the hostages while using herself as bait to investigate certain financial scams. Landon didn't look like someone short on money, so he had to enter the country posing as a model. The usual trick with overseas scams was that someone familiar would tell people how great it was to make money abroad. For example, they would be told that they could make 30,000 dollars a month easily. Over there, they would be staying at villas with pools, wearing designer jewelry, and driving expensive cars. It sounded ridiculous, but plenty of people fell for it. When leaving the country, customs officers would repeatedly wa

    Aria looked up. "But the choice is yours. If you want to stay in Portfall, I'll have Mr. Gallagher Senior make arrangements. If you want to go back to your hometowns to visit, I'll arrange transport for you too." She knew everyone here was reluctant to leave this place. They'd spent the first half of their lives working for the Chamber. As for the second half, Aria hoped they could go home and rest properly. Sawyer took a deep breath. "I'll listen to Ms. Carver. I'll go back home and get some proper rest." Rollo and the others exchanged glances, then said together, "We'll also listen to Ms. Carver, but—" Rollo looked at Curtis. "You have to take good care of the Chamber. Don't let it fall into someone else's hands again." Curtis' expression turned serious. "Not unless I'm dead. And Clarence is growing up well. We won't let you down." Clarence stood up beside him. "Gentlemen, I'll take good care of the Chamber. Please don't worry." Aria glanced at Clarence. "Study hard und

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2019 Making the Choice

    When Aria heard what Landon said, she was speechless. She asked, "What about Sam then?" Aria rested her hand on her chin. Landon said calmly, "His identity stays the same. He'll be our younger brother." Aria glanced over. "I thought..." Right then, Aria's phone rang. Her eyes lit up when she saw who it was. "I've been waiting for your call," Aria said in perfect Angladian. The person on the other end spoke fluent Angladian. "Oh, this wasn't easy. I asked around everywhere but got nothing. But I finally got a lead."They're being secretly detained by intelligence services. So I made up an excuse to meet with the deputy director and got him drunk to pump him for information. "Those people are probably being held at a special detention center. On paper, it's a private security training facility, but it's actually a prison." Aria frowned slightly. "So this place is like a prison, and you can't ever get out?" The person continued, "Exactly. Nobody can get anywhere close t
